Here's my page for Task 1 of the October Progressive Scrap Challenge!
This week's task consisted of just one step:
Select at least six (yes, at least 6!) layers for the background of your page, meshing them into one finished layer by blending, lowering opacity, sizing etc. You may use overlays, masks, elements, various papers, words, borders, edges, etc., etc.
I blended a total of 8 layers to create this background!
